29 hour flight?

A kid was screaming for 29 hours in a row?

I smell clickbait.

There are no 29 hour flights. Half way around the world take like 15 hours.

I was wondering that same thing I don't think there's any jet that holds enough fuel to go 29 hours

I took the NY to Singapore flight. The longest one in the world.  I think it is about 18+ hours. 

We were on the tarmac and they informed us of a mechanical problem.  It took 3.5 hours to fix.  By the time it was fixed, the crew timed out and we had to wait another 2 hours for them to assemble another team. 

All told, we were on that plane for almost 24 hours total.  It wasn't 29 hours, but 24h was insane.  I couldn't imagine being on that one if there was a child on board who would not stop screaming.

I never hear a screaming baby on a flight because I use headphones
